OP
Quoted from SkitBPinball:

Here you go, guys. Keep in mind that this is still in extremely early stages of testing, but here's a quick video showing off the whitewood in action. As always, we are looking forward to hearing your thoughts and comments on what we have so far!
» YouTube video

Very cool..... I have been checking this project out for about a week now. I am not sure if any of my questions have been answered and if they have I apologize.

Do you have any plans in place yet in regards to the playfield artwork? I am just wondering what we can expect, I don't think it will be hand drawn considering your ball park price but it has to be better than some recent machines. Also.......... what are your terms in regards to pre orders (deadlines in case I won't to opt out after ordering and your payment plan if decided yet). Lastly......you guys seem far along in this project, what are you anticipating in regards to production / lead times on getting games being built and out the door?

Thanks,
Chris

Watcin it myself tonight. "Goddam jackpot" said by Dillon looking through papers in hut early at the 27 minute 57 second mark made me laugh.

Funny stuff......I searched on demand for it last night but could not find it. Off to Wal Mart today for me I guess.

I think about this pinball going to bed. I think about it when I wake up. I think about it during the day.
I'm hooked!

I am the same way lol.......I'm waiting for the Predator blu ray movie to arrive but once I put it in, I am sure that damn musical will still be stuck in my head..... I am hoping I can get to the `Zoo to check this thing out (hoping they decide to bring it). Since I can't make it to MI expo this weekend.

Question for the guys at SkitB.......will it come with a shaker motor? If not will the P-roc be pre programmed allowing for an easy add on Mod?

Thanks again, Chris

That cracked me up thanks BigPhil!
Honestly, I just can't imagine the $hit storm this is gonna stir up when she walks in and sees it. It's gonna be bad!
I'm gonna give her all the SkitB contact info. It's their fault

You and me both lol! Although we are already married. I'm thinking I need to give her a gift the same day this machine shows up.

Quoted from The_Dude_Abides:

Nibbles said:I'm curious about being able to add a shaker motor still, I thought I remember reading that it would be coded into the pin but not physically installed.

Kevin said a while back they would code for shaker (Shaker used on Sterns) and run wiring to front if we wanted that. I think it is a great idea for this theme. Shaker will not be installed or included. Probably be a good idea to add that info to new post as well. Not sure if this has changed but I hope not.

Yes indeed, I remember asking them about the shaker and he said it will not come with one but he didn't see any issues with adding the code for it.

I'm gagging for an update but on the other hand, I don't want to distract them from their work.

Same here.........I need my fix!!!!! But not really since I am assuming they are super busy on the game. It was just really fun in March and April with all the conversations going on.

Quoted from J85M:

Yeah i must admit I'm kinda worried I'm sure they are just busy but I know they where ridiculously busy before but Kevin was dropping by here and there, unless they are finishing it up and waiting for a big finished reveal, hopefully it is just that and we are all in for a nice surprise/reveal soon.

I feel the same way. Is there anybody out there? Kevin or Aaron, how is it going? Are we enjoying life?

I think you guys spoiled us in the past and now w just don't know what to do at this point.

How is James doing on the artwork?

All I can say about the Pred team is that they are very hard at work on the game and an update is just a couple weeks to a month in coming. Sorry can't release the details.

Man, I am jealous........... I should have travelled to MI for my vacation week before last.

Thanks chiming in Gravitar!

....

Quoted from playboywillis:Hahaha yeah, but I'll say something like remember how I married you, or how you need me for that kid you're always talking about.
No, as long as I always have my money for the bills, it'll be fine. I guess what I had to explain is that somehow, magically, pins hold their value. A $5000 tv is not going to be worth that in 5 years, but a pin will (if it's good) and possibly more. We just need to know that if something happens that my pension can't cover, I could flip this thing quick and get my money back out of it.
I also had to explain that there is no money down and that if the first hundred guys who have the table are generally giving negative feedback (which I think there's no way in hell will happen), then I'll just have to walk away.
Now if I could just get some confirmation from the Skit B guys... wink wink nudge nudge

Good stuff........I just told my wife on Friday that I pre ordered the night Kevin announced it and got #4 and most of the other things you mentioned. She did not give a fuss at all, I will probably need to buy her something nice when the time comes. But I agree it will be worth a lot more than my TV.

So here is a question......... Considering I was super early on Predator and it took me about 6 months (June 2011) to finally pull the trigger on WOZ. I am wondering which machine will arrive first? No pressure Kevin & Aaron, just thinking that if you guys are still on schedule (and no worries if you are not). That I might just get Predator first.

No idea i was just talking to him the other day and he briefly mentioned he had to get together with these guys to talk shop.

I would imagine that Matt had to finish up all his WOZ work before even touching Predator.
